Automatically convert excel files to Python
I've spent the past few years teaching business analysts at large financial institutions how to automate their Excel workflows with Python. My main takeaway are:

1. Business analysts can spend up to weeks per month updating existing month-end Excel reports with new data.

2. Python automations can reduce the updating process to a matter of minutes.

3. BUT actually understanding the Excel file & writing the Python automation code can take several months.

4. Tools like ChatGPT are hugely useful when given a specific translation task — eg: convert the formula =SUM(A1, B1) to Python — but get completely lost on more complicated translations.

So I'm trying to build an AI-powered tool that can automatically convert Excel workbooks to Python. The key to doing so is 1) using plain old programming to parse the Excel file and build a translation plan (finding all of the unique tables in the Excel file, identifying repeated logic, determining the correct order to output the code), and 2) to prompt an LLM to execute each piece of that translation plan one at a time.

Maybe we were talking past each other a bit — for the specific technical portion of the interview where you are assessing coding ability (the thing you can leetcode to practice for), the resume doesn’t really add much value and can serve to bias the interviewer.

There is usually an experience and goals interview where a manager interviews the candidate to see if they would make a good fit for the team. That definitely involves a resume and a discussion of past work experience with the objective of confirm if they’re a cog or a tech lead :)

It can be important to split them up especially if you’re relying on more junior technical interviewers to validate coding skill. They won’t always know what they’re looking for yet along this axis.

ncdu also has the really cool feature of being able to dump its internal scan state to stdout and having a flag to load that state, which means you can pipe SSH output from ncdu on a server into a local file. Then you can inspect what's taking up space on a VPS without having to log in on it.

It's especially great if the server is out of disk space and/or the server is under too heavy a load to keep an SSH connection going; you can investigate what's clogging up space (usually logfiles gone awry) and clean up accordingly.

It's one of the default utilities I have installed on my servers for a very good reason and it's helped out countless times over the past few years for hobby servers of mine (aka the ones where "scaling it up" isn't an option because the budget is constrained by it being a hobby).

A few thoughts as I've done academic research & built products in this area:

- if you're using SMPL body parameters this will have to stay research / open-source
- is this leveraging some sort of monocular depth estimation to estimate the wall in 3D space? Also, do you have assumed camera parameters, or is that also estimated? If there isn't any depth information, this will be highly inaccurate on any cliff routes, but still useful on flat wall climbing.

Overall, a good idea (that I've also thought about building as a climber) - the tricky part that I'm impressed you have a solution to is path planning up the wall. Even assuming a flat wall with no depth estimation, it's still looks effective.

Respectfully, you are making the error of assuming it is a technical problem when it is a political one.

The problem the government have is the masses trust those bad people over there more than our trusted and approved government experts over here, and they think this is a communication problem and not a problem of substance.

I would agree that technical measures for trust are necessary, but the gov should not be allowed to be the arbiter of who gets to trust who - that is a fundamental freedom that must be left to individuals.

Some legacy systems can't be migrated to postgres even if we wanted.

I've used Postgres and it has some nice features, especially with it's data types but often find myself lost with it's way of doing things. When possible I reach for SQLite instead of MySQL.

it will be our job to communicate 1 and 2 to developers in the future. for now, we focus on building inlang.com as the first lix app(s). inlang.com might by itself become the convincing argument to build on lix "oh look how they build inlang with lix".

What do you classify / rank ?
> I want to read everything I can in the original, rather then having everything translated, but even websites that use the language header often only consider the first entry.

Unfortunately that's not solvable with the current system which only allows listing a preferred order of languages and that's that.
Like if I'd list English first, I risk getting English content even on pages originally written in my native language, if I put my native language first, then e.g. MSDN puts up so so-quality machine translations instead of the original English.

In theory you'd have to differentiate between at least native text, high quality translations and low quality translations. Now good luck creating an UI for that and also good luck for getting publishers to classify their websites and its contents according to such a scheme…
It's a triumph of regulation that he got his money. It would have been very natural for CBS to cite technical difficulties or find some other way to change the rules of the game, but US game shows in this era were terrified of the FCC, who were given strong powers to enforce fairness in game shows after some frauds in the 50s [0].

Those laws are still on the books, of course, but I expect game show producers have got better at working around them in the small print, while regulators haven't kept up.

That's not necessarily true. The coffee to water ratio for cold brew can be generally lower, and you end up needing more coffee for 2-3 cups. At home, using something like a Hario cold brew bottle, and depending on how much coffee you use, I would say it's anywhere from 20% to 50% more expensive than a standard V60 brewed coffee.

In a coffee shop you need to prepare way more coffee, you need the space to store it cold over night, so I would say the higher price is understandable.

Union autoworkers make more and habe better benefits than non union auto workers.

You know that when the big non unionized auto workers recebtly got raises? Right after the unionised ones fought for and got their own.

The union is the only thing that drives wages up. Non union shops, including your example of Delta flight staff, only get benefits because the unions are there. Without the other unions in that space, they would get nothing.

You know what would ensure Delta gets all the same benefits as the unionized staff around them? Joining the same union.
More than likely not caused by porn but less in person social situations
Porn did not turn kids into deranged rapists.

However, it did plenty of damage. Completely unrealistic dating expectations to the point where nobody dates anyone; women getting treated violently during sex ("what do you mean asphyxiation isn't normal?"), far greater experimentation with potentially dangerous behavior (anal sex), increased tension between the genders (hard to look at a man knowing he's looked at hundreds of you), etc. STD rates have also increased - syphilis has increased 80% in just 5 years. It is also a scientific fact that heavy porn use is correlated with depression, and depression rates among the youth have (to put it mildly) exploded, especially among young women (obviously other factors are contributing).

A. It doesn't make children rapists, but...

B. It's terrible for mental health and relationships.

C. Anything that is terrible for mental health, or relationships, is fair game for regulation on that basis alone when it affects children (alcohol, drugs, etc.)

> Some high performers go unmanaged for so long that they work themselves into a role that has no real responsibility - they just float around and help people. There’s nothing sadder than a capable person with no real responsibility.

What? Why is allowing a high performer to float around and help lower-performing employees a problem? If they're enjoying what they're doing (they usually are) and they're helping other people on the team (which is explicitly said) and the rest of the team recognizes them for their work (presumably they do), I'm failing to see why that's not "responsibility".

I'd honestly hate to be managed by this person. If you're my manager, I want you to let me do what I do best and offer support when I need it. Give me feedback when I'm doing something wrong, help me to the next step in my career, but if you think that it's bad that I find ways to build up the team/product without you handing my work to me that is your problem, not mine.
